Russian Search Engine Yandex Prepping $2 Billion IPO

Peter Kafka | May 20, 2008 7:35 PM

yandex logo1.jpg Yandex, the largest search engine in Russia, is preparing to raise up to $2 billion in an IPO that will value the company at $5 billion, Reuters reports. The newswire says that Morgan Stanley, Deutsche Bank and Renaissance Capital are on board to do an offering on the Nasdaq.

We've placed Yandex at number six on our SA 25 list of the world's most valuable companies; we pegged its value at $3 billion:

Yandex generated revenue of about $160 million in 2007, up 130% over 2006's $72 million, with most of it coming from contextual advertising. We estimate a 2007 operating margin of 40%, producing operating income of approximately $65 million. The company generated net income of $29 million in 2006 and $13.6 million in 2005...

Given Yandex's growth rate and dominant market share, we believe the company is worth at least 40X-45X trailing net income, or $3 billion.

I still remember the situation when we leave each other. I remember that even when the first I take the boat, I was very happy. But to my surprise, when I was in the boat, I still think the game, especially the ghost gold, I considered playing the game with my friends and I won a lot of gold. The first body hit agile, and change my cloth with my friends.

I like playing the game, but I read more like a love game. I do not mind a fantasy about love. It due to that I am a lonely girl, I want to take someone feeling to fill the hearts of the unknown wounds. The Metin2 gold brings the happy to me. It has my desire.

I am going to the road of ghost for more than a year, but I have to leave to ghost when she emerged, so this game more exciting and fun, a chance at the egret, and the fear of a little island I have opportunity to know her. I love to play the ghost. In the game, there is a lot of ghost gen, so we can have them to buy equipment to make us powerful.
